"The third instrument, I should like to mention today, is the framework decision on the fight against terrorism. For that decision, we can, of course, draw on the experience already gathered in connection with the two instruments I mentioned a moment ago, but that does not take away from the importance of the decision. First of all, because it is also essential to promote judicial cooperation by harmonising penalisations. It is crucial to develop a common strategy on terrorism and in that way to develop a truly European criminal policy in that area. It is also vital to grant European courts of justice broad judicial powers.
But the significance of the framework decision also lies in the subtleties thereof, as some of you have rightly pointed out: all actions in connection with terrorism, including taking part in and supporting a terrorist group, must be considered. At the same time, great care must be taken not to go too far, and accordingly, a definition should be introduced which rules out any risk of abuse.
The Council is acutely aware of this, and it is with those elements in mind that the activities are moving forwards. They are making steady progress and that is borne out by the outcome of the meetings of 16 November. Indeed, we can already ascertain that the changes that were made have brought the positions closer together."@en1
